Fadu 2009
FADU 2009
To celebrate our first year of existence, and the pleasure afforded by the photographic printing process we have arranged a public exhibition of your work. It is our intention that this exhibition, consisting of some forty of your prints, will be hung in a modern display space in Middle England, and will be accessible to the general public for up to 12 hours a day, 7 days per week during the month of October 2009. The exhibition is intended to further the aims of this forum, so we want to show the widest possible selection of your work. We consider it very important that all abilities are represented; this is not to become an elitist event. Every attempt will be made to gain the widest possible advertising for the event locally and nationally, both in the specialist and general press, for what is envisaged will become an annual event. The cost of entry will include the matting and mounting of your print, in a 50x40 glazed frame, cataloguing, labelling, and hanging, together with the return, in its original packing of any unsold prints. Currently we anticipate this entry fee will be in the order of £15 per photograph. If we are successful in attracting sponsorship it may be possible to reduce this, more on that aspect later. Sales will be subject to a commission charge yet to be established, but budget on 50%. It is envisaged your print size may range from about 12x12cm to 40x30, or something in between. Subject and medium will be of your choice, but it must accord with the tenets of this forum. It is also our intention to copy and reproduce the exhibition pictures both here on the forum, in a dedicated gallery, as well as in the form of a year book, using one of the on-line publishing houses, this will be available for purchase by you and general public alike. If you see any similarity between this and Best of Friends, please be assured that this is completely intentional. It is anticipated that whilst the event must be self-financing it will also be non-profit making, but any surplus money that does, by some miracle accrue, will be used to help fund this forum. |

I tip my hat to you guys (if I had one) for taking on what will be a lot of work.
Did you see the very long threads in largeformatphotography where they did the book thing. Might be worth trawling through it to understand the pros and cons of which POD company to use for reasonable quality and to alert everyone to the copyright, royalty and other stuff so that there are no misunderstandings after the event. http://www.largeformatphotography.in...ght=lulu+blurb http://www.largeformatphotography.in...highlight=lulu http://www.largeformatphotography.in...ght=lulu+blurb Those are just some of the threads associated with it...
